HOROSCOPES: It's time to stop settling.

Natasha Weber is an astrology genius and has predicted our horoscopes for the week beginning January 26. For more from Natasha, follow her on Instagram and Facebook.

Balance isn't just a buzzword; it's the key to your sanity this week. Work may throw extra demands your way, but overextending yourself isn't the answer. If a colleague keeps "forgetting" their share of the load, it's time for a direct (but diplomatic) chat. By Thursday's Full Moon, the focus shifts to love. Couples, swap stress for spontaneity. And singles, if someone doesn't make you laugh within the first few conversations, consider it a red flag.

The Full Moon stirs a family standoff, revealing who's open to compromise and who just wants to win. How much are you willing to give? On the bright side, Mercury makes networking effortless, and a new connection could open doors. But success has side effects; if a friend's energy shifts when you enter the spotlight, take note. That's not a friend; it's an audience member who wants the lead role.

Mercury helps you plug that genius idea, so stop overthinking and put it out there. Whether it's a creative pitch, a business idea, or just a well-timed social media post, the right people are listening. The Sun gives your brain extra bandwidth, especially with tricky data or tech. If you've been avoiding a digital upgrade — learning new software, fixing a website glitch, or figuring out AI tools — now's the time. Mastering this skill could lead to bigger opportunities.

Mars has you thinking strategically, putting the pieces in place for a bigger goal. This isn't about quick wins; it's about lasting success. Then Thursday's Full Moon arrives, and a realisation lands hard: You need more. More challenge, more connection, more meaning. Maybe your job isn't fulfilling, a relationship is missing something, or a situation just feels stagnant. You don't have to figure it all out at once, but one thing's clear — it's time to stop settling.

POWER DAY Monday.

With the Full Moon in your sign, the power shifts to you. If a relationship feels more like a weight than a support system, staying shouldn't be the default. A draining job? Then a firm boundary (or a no-regrets exit) may be overdue. And if you're carrying family baggage that isn't yours to hold, let this be the week you set it down. La Luna hands you the pen. Write the next chapter on your own terms.

POWER DAY Thursday.

Thursday's Full Moon is your reminder that burnout isn't an achievement. If your back aches from bad posture, your inbox is stressing you out, or you're running on fumes, La Luna grants you a cosmic timeout. By the weekend, an honest conversation clears the air. You could solve a sticky relationship issue or hatch an exciting plan with your favourite person. Either way, rest first — good things come when your body and mind aren't running on overdrive.

Mars and Saturn's link has you in full-on efficiency mode — crossing things off your list, handling the tedious stuff, and getting things done. But Thursday's Full Moon reminds you that not everything is a solo mission. A team project needs a mediator, travel plans require actual decision-making, or a family issue is calling out for attention. Whether you're playing peacemaker or project manager, patience pays off. The sooner everyone aligns, the sooner life gets easier.

Same problems, same responses? Not this time. This week, you're breaking the mould. Whether it's a work conflict, a fading friendship, or a love life crossroads, a radically new approach brings better results than repeating the past. Maybe it's stepping back, calling something out, or flipping the script entirely. By Thursday's Full Moon, you're done waiting for permission. You'll make a move that puts you first — and this time, you won't waste energy explaining yourself.

That home project you keep ignoring? Mercury says it's time. Whether it's fixing a wobbly shelf, decluttering your wardrobe, or finally dealing with that pile of paperwork, small changes make a big difference. Saturn sharpens your financial game, too. You may be cancelling streaming services you barely use, meal-prepping instead of wasting money on takeout or negotiating a better deal on something overpriced. Practical? Yes. Boring? Maybe. But getting your life in order just feels good this week.

POWER DAY Friday.

Thursday's Full Moon doesn't do shallow. A conversation gets deep, emotions spill over, and nothing stays on the surface. It's messy, raw, real — and exactly what you need. Whether it's in love, friendship, or even just with yourself, honesty changes everything. By Friday, creativity calls. Maybe you're writing, painting, cooking, or just putting together the perfect playlist. Whatever it is, it's the perfect outlet for pent-up frustrations. And right now, that's everything.

A Sunday breakthrough shifts something big — a sudden insight, a creative hit, or an idea you can't shake. Follow it. By Thursday, the Full Moon demands honesty in your relationships. No more reading between the lines, hinting, or hoping someone just gets it. Say what you need, loud and clear. Whether it's setting a boundary, making a request, or finally getting something off your chest, your emotions aren't a weakness. They're your power move.

Mars and Saturn send a reality check: you don't just deserve fun; you need it. Whether it's dancing in your kitchen, binge-watching a guilty pleasure, or hitting up friends for a last-minute plan, joy is non-negotiable. Mercury bounces into your sign on Friday, flooding your brain with a whirlwind of ideas and a key decision. Get your thoughts out before locking anything in. A quick chat with the right person could shift everything into place.
